Out-draw the outlaws in a Wild West saloon, shoot the loot for bonuses, and never hit a civilian.
More about Saloon Showdown
Saloon Showdown is a first-person Wild West shooting gallery set in The Thirsty Moose saloon. Thugs, outlaws and the occasional boss burst through the doors and pop up at the windows, and you have one six-shooter and very fast reflexes to stop them. Innocent townsfolk wander through too, and shooting one ends your run on the spot.
It's a game of nerve and accuracy. Shoot a thug before he draws for a Quick Draw bonus, go for the head for extra points, and keep hitting without a miss to grow a streak multiplier of up to five times. The saloon is full of things to shoot for bonuses: hats and loot tossed into the air, bottles on the shelves, the spittoon, the moose's hat, and the chains holding up the big sign, which crushes anyone underneath when it falls.
Outlaws drop a shotgun when you take them down, and catching the Sheriff's star gives you two revolvers at once for a few seconds of double trouble.
Every 24 seconds a new round starts, with faster doors, quicker draws and more enemies at once. From round two they start throwing dynamite. The camera also swings round the saloon as you clear waves, from the doors to the bar to the entrance. In multiplayer Party mode, friends defend the saloon together.
How to play
- Aim with the mouse and click to shoot.
- Press R or right-click to reload. Your revolver holds six shots.
- On a phone or tablet, tap to aim and fire, and tap the ammo button to reload.
- You have one life. Getting outdrawn, getting hit by dynamite, or shooting a civilian ends the run.
Scoring
- Thugs are worth 100, bosses 200 and outlaws 300, with bonuses for headshots and quick draws.
- Shoot flying hats, bottles, coins, watches, bags and tumbleweeds for extra points. Every third hat is a Hat Trick.
- Clearing a whole shelf of bottles or dropping the big sign gives a large bonus.
- Every hit grows your streak multiplier. A miss resets it.
Tips
- Shoot thugs before the "!" appears over their heads for a Quick Draw.
- Never fire near civilians, however tempting the shot.
- Build your streak on easy targets, then cash in the big bonuses, like the shelf clear and the sign drop, while your multiplier is high.
